2:01
buckets yeah look at that so it's always
2:05

2:07
bass so that's the key cuz this guy as
2:09
much as he loves hunting small game big
2:12
game wherever he loves hunting these
2:13
guys especially the green ones - they
2:15
the largemouth and smallmouth he's a
2:16
fisherman he doesn't like these in a nut
2:18
case like the rest of us are horribly
2:19
open when you're no doors person you
2:21
just love it I love it I love it
2:23
I'm just really looking forward to this
2:25
buddy I'm trying to smash a couple of
2:26
doing green ones and some brown ones
2:28
through it perfect love it Keith started
2:32
grabbing his rod don't you think these
2:39
not avid let's try this much good stuff
2:42
away this pod right here alright I'm in
2:44
I'm in
2:50
okay hey he's alright what job catching
2:59
him yeah he he hit it and let it go all
3:03
deserved it again he's okay but he look
3:07
for him they'll pull him right into that
3:08
dark dirty I cast
3:10
so far in there it was underneath those
3:13
Cedars skipped it in there and that took
3:16
four you know and then he bit once let
3:19
it go he came back they all out for that
3:22
little guy hey oh look at this
3:26
fishing lanky no way it is to that fish
3:29
has been caught and either broke off or
3:31
released so that the campers the hook
3:33
great $39 like yeah hooks right there
3:35
yeah he's trying to get the hook go
3:37
places oh cool
3:39
and a lot of times they can get they can
3:40
poop that woke up believe it or not
3:42
that's amazing of nature a tease ate
3:44
somebody's bait and the line broke or
3:47
whatever when he broke it off here or
3:50
they released it cut it off
3:51
and he's trying to poop that hookup
3:54
either that fish that maybe the hook oh
3:57
this all with Rostand go away or maybe
3:59
he can expel it himself but it's better
4:01
off he's staying alive obviously right
4:03
now with it in there so I'll just let
4:04
him go like that and then normally they
4:06
can just live their life like that and
4:07
they'll poop around it if that's you
4:08
know it sounds gross but that's what
4:09
they do so believe it or not this isn't
4:13
the first time we've had out what the
4:14
heck is that experience check out this
4:16
clip from a previously unaired episode
4:18
brands and I were fishing in Halliburton
4:20
County not too far from where Keith and
4:22
I are today that's a little better
4:24
that's getting better
4:26
oh he's got a seam that's the fish I
4:28
think I said fish I caught yesterday
4:29
really no kidding I really do think so I
4:33
took a walk around here yesterday caught
4:37
a fish that had a hook
4:41
whose beat there I'm sure yeah it's
4:42
gotta be because it's festering the same
4:44
way and a little big hit matter of fact
4:47
I got a picture of that I can get
4:49
close-up of it
4:51
what a good looking fish he was hungry
4:55
in a sinkhole yesterday and a big chunk
4:57
today Pete you just said that first tree
5:04
up there we'll get the fish to the day
5:06
and app you can call things like that
5:07
I'll follow everywhere but anyway
5:13
[Music]
5:19
[Music]
5:22
oh yeah don't watch fall 14 feet there
5:32
yeah nicely done buddy yeah way to start
5:35
it out you were coming back to Royal
5:37
Saskatchewan days but in deep weeds I
5:39
was perfect though yeah I thought it's
5:42
bigger than I came in out of the deep
5:43
water and what that by the 1213 feet
5:45
yeah for sure
5:46
we just kept where keith was watching up
5:49
front watch the break I said oh my God
5:51
look at the weeds here he said look at
5:52
the weeds here we saw it instantly both
5:54
ways through the Garmin's and through
5:56
key size and then we thought we've got
5:58
to try it because it just looks perfect
5:59
it comes real fast break to a point of
6:02
different weeds really different trends
6:04
it's not a big fish but it's a good
6:05
start right so now we know there's
6:07
probably something Eric feeler to
6:08
operate it nope we out wait I thought
6:10
maybe weeds but I set the hook anyway
6:14
okay well we know the large boulder here
6:17
let me just get it on on a little fella
6:20
cute little fish love deep fish whoa and
6:27
that was on a flappin hog a krabi but so
6:30
nice
6:35
yeah very subtle not hardly anybody at
6:37
all line any part of that is a lot of
6:40
guys think you only catch those on pads
6:41
and docks when you can get about 12 foot
6:43
breaks and we did is that pretty fun
6:45
love that cuz if they're stacked in here
6:47
yeah you're gonna have a heyday right
6:48
this is we're gonna get a school of fish
6:50
in a spot like this it's got a figure
6:53
mode as to where you leave that guy out
6:56
cuz you have to win again you got he was
7:05
on it get a buddy with him I'll throw
7:09
the help quick and then I'll get the net
7:10

7:13
yeah so all it for sure tree fin right
7:16
off the front of that tree tree fish
7:18
buddy let's get him in the net waters
7:21
too cold to the further trend with him

7:24
I'll let on myself figured there might
7:25
be yeah good fish nice one any yeah yeah
7:32
solid job nope oh I just about had their
7:37
round I felt like a how to get him I
7:39

7:50
t3 yeah he's he's fine anyway
7:53

7:58
that I'll Foley everywhere okay buddy
8:00
nice good job by beauty beauty beauty
8:03
you got a rocky pulling me like it he
8:06
catches the rock bass and I'll take
8:07
these
8:08
it's like Saskatchewan but I got the
8:10
pike you got the bass
8:11
good work keethy
8:16
our waters 60s just got 67 degrees
8:20
at the Keith you take the outside of the
8:21
tree I'll take the inside we're just
8:23
trying to establish a pattern I mean we
8:24
were going back to our Saskatchewan days
8:26
where we had to figure things out
8:31
sometimes it takes you a few hours or in
8:33
what I'm hunting you got to go on it
8:35
look at that right there figure out one
8:36
there that might be something to look at
8:38
all with this hopefully if it's a fallen
8:43
tree and we'll hit a bunch of fallen
8:44
trees you know there are in northern
8:45
waters like this there's usually a bunch
8:47
of them we can I make a pattern out of
8:49
it not what a pattern basically is is
8:51
that every time we see a fallen tree if
8:54
there's you know every five trees
8:56
there's a large boat on it you know that
8:57
you're gonna have a good chance at you
8:59
know catching a largemouth bass off a
9:01
tree so it's a classic northern
9:03
largemouth powder right I mean trees are
9:06
good wood is amazing this leg is amazing
9:09
for wood apparently so good job like fun
9:12
now we gonna pop before then we pop a
9:14
five and then we go back to the cottage
9:16
at lunch
9:17
like the way you think Pete knock-knock
9:21
he's home and Keith missed what the heck
9:26
whole night in you wanted to set a
9:28
record Pete have you ever seen one that
9:30
big
9:30

9:32
here in the wild you're gonna be feeling
9:38
the shirt off Fraser the jacket up
9:40
pretty soon bud don't worry I won't peel
9:42
my shirt off for you so it was one
9:44
degree this morning and now it's already
9:46
about 20 close to it it's actually
9:49
perfect
9:55
so the tree trunk and other branches go
9:58
right into short cedar stick so that's
10:00

12:17
what happened below it's some kind of a
12:18
chub I don't know what Lake job whatever
12:20
that a cool-looking fish that's
12:23
unbelievable
12:23
I don't never seen that the scales are
12:25
really soft that's like if there was
12:28
muskie a pike in this lake or an eight
12:29

12:31

12:37
I've ever caught
12:45
yeah sorry no watch all the little
12:48
running I motors running I think a
12:49
minute Oh buddy you're gonna lose that
12:51
fish if you well you're in it yeah
12:55
larger your buttocks where's my net
12:59
where's your fish large e alright though
13:03
boy I thought you're gonna lose your rig
13:05
on that I was closer than this Margie's
13:10
in the rocks Oh a like hey that's
13:11
awesome you see now that's something
13:13
wouldn't expect no cuz this is no weeds
13:15
you know hot sunny day you think it'd be
13:17
small ease a little bit of both but not
13:20
a bad one so ok this is a perfect
13:24
example now you being a hunter a
13:27
big-game hunter
13:28
what do you look for when you go out you
13:29
know you're looking for any question cuz
13:32
growing up
13:33
we've always connected hunting to
13:34
fishing and fuel they're very similar
13:36
great different methods but same stuff
13:38
we're looking for stuff that the animal
13:40
can relate to and edges right so
13:43
whatever transitions from field to swamp
13:46
or woods to field somewhere in that 50
13:49
yards of that edge
13:50
you're gonna find your animals and
13:51
our opinion so this rock - mud Rock -
13:54
we'd see plague leader there in the
13:56
rocker those transitions are I find it
13:58
almost this is this hunting fish to me
13:59
yeah so we hunted down a large both in a
14:01
small spot which is a bonus I like that
14:03
let's take it like findin moose and oak
14:05
together yeah absolutely yeah and
14:09
oftentimes when something works for one
14:10
thing you're seeing everything there
14:11
it's just a good spot where animals are
14:13
and there you go we can hunt and we can
14:16
finish shooting yeah okay I'll take a
14:18
large both on the spot that'd be fun
14:23
only the beauty piece to get to today's
14:35
central Ontario bass fishing keep the
14:37
night first took highway 401 to highway
14:39
115 north we then took highway seven
14:41
east and then 28 north we finally took
14:44
mcgillvary Road for accommodations at
14:46
anchorage resort this place uses bass
14:49
fishing with both large and small mouths
14:51
around every corner
14:52
if ice fishing is your thing the resort
14:54
will set you up with transportation to
14:56
and from their heated huts for a shot at
14:58
a great population of lake trout and
14:59
splake the resorts cabins are located
15:02
directly on the water and offer a
15:03
fantastic view of the lake there's great
15:05
document asila tees along with a well
15:07
maintained boat launch Lodge owner Brian
15:09
Stubbings still rates potash lake as one
15:11
of the best bass lakes in all of Ontario
15:19
nicely done
15:21
yeah can I bring him in like this or not
15:24
that's the question I can add him for
15:26
you yeah they're still here I'm not
15:32
leaving until they're done like you said
15:36
the edges we're working on edge is a
15:37
rock
15:38
there's a rock edge because rock to
15:40
whatever bottom is here so that's just
15:42
the transition it's your opinion we're
15:43
off the main lake and it's constantly
15:45
blowing into this point there's got to
15:47
be wind to swim people always want calm
15:49
weather all I need to calm to fish it's
15:51
not so good folks the wind is really
15:53
good for fishing right it blows the bait
15:54
around it blows the zooplankton around
15:56
breaks the sunlight a little bit there's
15:59
all kinds of keys to the wind that
16:00
really help fishing
16:05
one off the end yeah exactly
16:10
Largey yeah large e now and keep this
16:14
talking about transitions or whatever's
16:16
rock there's some wheel here there's
16:18
some wood right there that's rebar
16:20
transition now let me that's a can't go
16:22
wrong typo
16:23
spot for March right but he's the right
16:28
species poof
16:30
he's been eaten fish crayfish or
16:32
something because he stinks it stinks
16:34
like crustacean yeah you know on a lake
16:40
like this and bought out you gotta hit
16:42
at all it's great you can find good
16:45
little sections we'll get that if this
16:47
stump hit this rocket whatever size I
16:57
mean it doesn't feel huge yet but coming
17:01
up know might be what taught me there a
17:03
little yeah it might be doing here just
17:08
kind of pop dude oh that's bad job
17:11
that's right okay what is he doing over
17:18
here that may be what pop yeah we've non
17:19
cross yeah I guess so a Keith had a
17:23
little bump so anytime you have a bump
17:24
like that one guy should go back with a
17:26
Senko or a jig or like a small jig or
17:28
some kind of a finesse bait drop shot
17:30
anything like that how did that clump
17:33
yep chase me out son of a gun mmm
17:41
throw that jerk bait buying milk you
17:44
don't mind all of us do to come back oh
17:46
but you never know you got him that's
17:56
him
17:57
maybe yeah that's the shoulders uh I
18:01
don't think that's ten ours believe it

18:41
guys we'll take those guys all right go
18:44
off in the net to see you buddy
18:48
and to say that I enjoy fishing with
18:55
Keith Beasley is an understatement
18:56
he's got a great sense of humor he
18:58
understands the movements and ways of
19:00
all wildlife and he absolutely loves
19:03
fishing a great partner to spend a
19:05
couple of days on the water with until
19:07
next time my friend for the doubleheader
19:09
on stroke oh my god that is the fate of
19:13

[Music]
19:34
today's Garmin hotspot is at the top or
19:36
north end of potash lake near Bancroft
19:39
Ontario the waypoint on your screen will
19:41
put you in the area it's a small weed
19:43
patch or clump that at first sight seems
19:45
a bit too shallow to hold a decent fish
19:48
however Keith and I cast in this clump
19:50
at least four times before a great
19:51
largemouth snuck out and committed to
19:53
the bait persistence pays off for more
19:56
hotspots like this one check ou fishing
19:58
Canada calm
